1.7 IEC Cost All the costs associated with the planning, preparation (including that of the IEC Mentor) and subsequent running of the IEC, with the exception of the IEC team, is borne by the host country; The cost of the individual IEC Classifier is covered by their respective sponsoring organisation, while the cost of the INSARAG Secretariat representative is covered by the INSARAG Secretariat. The IEC host will determine if observers will be invited to the process. What (if any) expenses and services the IEC host will provide or cover will be explained in the process announcement. 1.8 INSARAG USAR Directory Upon successful completion of an IEC, the team will be recorded in the INSARAG USAR Directory at the level of classification achieved. 1.9 How to Contact the INSARAG Secretariat The function of the INSARAG Secretariat is provided by the Field Coordination Support Section (FCSS) of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). For additional information, contact the INSARAG Secretariat at: Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Field Coordination Support Section Palais des Nations CH 112 Geneva 10, Switzerland Telephone: +41(0)22 917 1234 (Office Hours) Facsimile: +41(0)22 917 0023 Email: insarag@un.org 2. IEC Stakeholders There are several stakeholders, all of which are integral to a USAR team being able to successfully undergo an IEC (Diagram 2). 7: Host Organisation Diagram 2 8: IEC Observers 6: Exercise Control 5: USAR Team 12 IEC Guidelines, 2011 Edition IEC Stakeholders 1: INSARAG Secretariat 2: IEC Team 3: IEC Mentor 4: : Governments and /or USAR Team Sponsoring Organisation
2.1 INSARAG Secretariat: A representative from the INSARAG Secretariat may form part of the IEC team. This representative serves as an objective facilitator during an IEC. The INSARAG Secretariat representative will either be an employee of FCSS or an individual endorsed by the ISG as a representative of the INSARAG Secretariat. The primary responsibilities of the INSARAG Secretariat representative during an IEC are as follows: • Ensure that the IEC is carried out in accordance with the IEC Checklist; • Ensure that the classification is based on the minimum requirements as determined by the INSARAG Guidelines; • Ensure IEC Classifiers do not attempt to use the IEC as an opportunity to promote their home country’s methodologies as the only way of operation; • Perform the role of mediator between the IEC Classifiers and the USAR team or its sponsoring organisation should the need arise; • Perform the role of a mediator in all matters associated with the IEC procedures and conduct, where appropriate. The INSARAG Secretariat representative is the final arbiter in all disputes. In the unlikely event it is required, it will make the final decision on any matters resulting in a dispute. 2.2 INSARAG National Focal Point The INSARAG National Focal Point serves as the primary point of contact for the INSARAG Secertariat in a particular country and is usually a senior officer in the Government Ministry responsible for the management of international and or national disaster response. The INSARAG National Focal Point acts as single point of contact of that Government for the INSARAG Secretariat and its international responders. Accordingly, the INSARAG National Focal Point is required to approve any request from a USAR team, whether it be a government or Non Government Organisation (NGO) team, to undergo an IEC or IER. For further details regarding the INSARAG Focal Point, see the INSARAG Guidelines, Section B3.7 INSARAG National Focal Point. 2.3 IEC Classifiers The INSARAG Secretariat maintains a database of suitable IEC Classifiers that are supported by their sponsoring organisation. The INSARAG Secretariat uses this pool of classifiers to select the team for a specific IEC. The team of IEC Classifiers is comprised of USAR experts selected by the INSARAG Secretariat from the three INSARAG regions and includes a representative from the INSARAG Secretariat. The team members provide the required technical expertise to 13 IEC Guidelines, 2011 Edition
